SECOND PRESIDENTIAL CRUISE
It is quite unusual to have the plea­sure
of making two Presidential crui­ses
on the same ship, since the Presi­dential
Yacht was striken from the
list of Naval Vessels.
One would gather from the news­paper
articles that we are to visit
some strange land heretofore not
visited by a white man.
The San Diego Union states that
the President is to make two stops
on his way to San Diego. One at
Boulder Dam which is nearing com­pletion.
The second stop will pro­bably
be for luncheon at Los Angeles.
The President is not expected to make
a stop at the American Legion Na­tional
Convention in St. Louis due to
the volume of work requiring his per­sonal
attention in Washington.
The local press did not state at what
port on the East Coast the President
and party would dis- embark. .... .,
NEW OFFICER
Chief Electrician's Mate, Arthur C.
Ma~ love USN., accepted his appoint­ment
and was sworn in as Electrician
on 17 September, 1935.
The Blue Bonnet wishes to take this
opportunity to congratulate Mr. Man­love.
His shipmates trust that his tour
on the Asiatic Station will be as pleas­ant
as our cruise has been with him
on the HOUSTON. ....
